Re-inventing a Classic

Posted on August 3, 2017 at 12:20 AM

This past weekend we presented Carol and Raul's wedding cake at the Clinton Town Hall in Clinton, Massachusetts. Our lovely bride Carol is very traditional and wanted to have an old-school wedding cake with separate tiers, and fountains. Sometimes making classic cakes can feel a bit dated but I was up for the challenge. Carol is young and vibrant so I wanted to highlight her youth by adding a modern twist to her vision.


I decided to give it a fresh look by adding ruffles emulating the wedding dress, and gilded decorations. The touch of gold made the cake look regal and timeless. The bride also wanted to highlight her Caribbean roots by having bright flowers. I added white lilies and coral roses with touches of champagne spray roses. To add to the tropical theme, the bride and groom selected for cake flavors Passion Fruit, Morir Soñando (orange cream) and Pina Colada.

Now let's talk about the size of this cake. Holy macaroni! it's huge! Let's go over all it went in to create this cake:

For this 250 servings cake I used 156 eggs, 14 lbs of flour, 18 lbs of butter, 24 lbs of sugar, 15 lbs of fondant and about 10 grams of edible gold dust (believe me, that's a lot of gold). It took 45 hours to complete, 1.5 hours to deliver and 1.5 hours to set up at the venue. 


After all was said and done, I think I accomplished what I set out to do, create a breathtaking, classic, and timeless centerpiece for a delightful couple who celebrated their love in from of all their family and friends, and I couldn't be more proud. Mission Accomplished! ;)

I wish to express thanks to this writer just for bailing me out of this particular predicament. Because of surfing throughout the search engines and obtaining ways which were not pleasant, I thought my life was over. Living minus the strategies to the issues you've resolved by means of this website is a serious case, and ones that would have badly affected my entire career if I hadn't come across your web page. Your main know-how and kindness in playing with all the pieces was very helpful. I don't know what I would've done if I had not come across such a thing like this. I can at this moment look forward to my future. Thanks for your time so much for the reliable and result oriented guide. I will not think twice to endorse your web sites to any individual who should get assistance on this problem.

Your knowledge and kindness in handling every aspect was tremendous. I'm not sure what I would've done if I hadn't discovered such a thing like this.
